RICOH IMAGING present the update service for the PENTAX K-1, which allows users of the PENTAX K-1 to add the advanced features of the new PENTAX K-1 Mark II to their PENTAX K-1 cameras. The cost is € 500.00
Main improvement in performance.
Improves high sensitivity through the accelerator chip.
Since the combination of the PRIME IV processor and the accelerator chip developed by RICOH drastically reduces noise, high sensitivity can be used up to ISO 819.200.
Improved autofocus performance.
The K-1 Mark II features the latest algorithm that increases autofocus speed. Furthermore, an accurate acquisition of the subject is obtained even when this color is similar to that of the background.
Dynamic Pixel Shift Resolution.
The K-1 Mark II features Dynamic Pixel Shift Resolution. It is a revolutionary technology that reverses the reasoning and allows you to use the camera's minimum flickers to produce composite images.
* Dynamic Pixel Shift Resolution can be used with excellent results even in low light situations and without a tripod.
* Using Dynamic Pixel Shift Resolution, please do not use a tripod.
